Asking people to connect their financial accounts takes trust. That’s why @perplexity_ai built Personal CFO with Plaid. We sat down with @jeffgrimes9 to talk about how it works.

On showing an early demo of Portable Computer on DGX Spark to Jensen, he was kind to gift us a DGX Station, a beast of a local computer that can serve even frontier models like GLM 5.3. Unmetered frontier intelligence running on your own local hardware coming soon!

Excited to announce Projects, which are Perplexity's hubs for agent and human collaboration. Most of my time now lives in Projects, where agents automatically manage their own persistent files and collaborate with native tools.
Projects are Perplexity's core for collaboration: as agents become more long-running, they will need more agent-native ways to persist and self-improve: memories, skills, and files. But until today, agents have lacked a central hub for collaboration that allows for a persistent area for knowledge work. That place is Projects, not individual chats or files. Projects come packaged with an set of CLI tools intentionally designed for agents to collaborate across files, projects, and with other agents.
Importantly, both individual and project identities are fully functional. Individually-scoped connectors are supported as usual, but so are project-level credentials. A project-level brain agent manages the project and provides objective summaries and memories. Agents do the execution but humans still do the steering with notifications and permissions checks.
Internally at Perplexity, the canonical way to work is now to start in Slack (each Project connects with at least one Slack channel), spawn multiple threads of conversation in parallel, accept most first passes, and follow up in Perplexity's apps when refinement is needed. The future of knowledge work is looking bright: work is incredibly efficient with tools like Computer, leaving more time for curiosity and learning.
Projects is the next step in the vision that Spaces began for collaboration and persistent storage of context. We're excited to see how you use Projects and we will learn from your feedback to keep pushing the frontier of what is possible when agents and humans work together to build real businesses.
don't think enough people talk about @perplexity_ai finance. i use nearly daily + love how it cleanly pairs with my @robinhoodapp account.
a small portion of my portfolio is managed by agents, this is a nice way to see how everything is looking + ask questions easily
